So, I had a message on my machine yesterday from a past guest looking for our Butter Knife for a family member. Any ideas? Was this a past product that has been discontinued and we have something close to it? TIA
 
I don't recall us ever having a butter knife specifically, however, the spreaders are quite handy for that. They are in a set of 2 now in cranberry and white. Another option would be the not so pretty but just as functional all purpose spreader.
 
We used to sell a spreader that stayed clipped on the edge of margarine containers.Can't remember the name of it it's been years since we had it.
 
It was called the Clip 'N Spread. And it's been gone for about 10 years. :(

so, my best bet looks like it will just be a spreader! Thanks guys!
 
Actually the clip and spreaders were in the surprise packs at conference last summer. I had one in mine, but it was a giveaway at one of my shows. Someone might have one...
 
The clip n' spread was in surprise packs?!?!?!?!
